One can murder for self defense and it is perfectly legal for an American to
murder in Iraq. So you cannot use this one.

Hamarabi thought of that one first. Josiah's scribes stole from him. So in
one respect stealing is perfectly honorable and legal. Since Hamarabi and
the Babylonians had far more world wide influence it is unfair to attribute
this law to the fake 10 Commandments.

Lying is only illegal in certain instances.

So now we are back down to zero influence from even the fake Ten
